NO ESTÉS ANSIOSO Nos preguntamos si el pasaje del Evangelio según san Lucas sería diferente si María, y no Marta, hubiera sido la que se quejó a Jesús; si María hubiera dicho: “¡Señor, mírala! Aquí estás tú compartiendo tu sabiduría y lo único que le preocupa a ella es la cena”. Puede que Jesús hubiera notado, como lo hace san Lucas, que Marta estaba recargada con mucho trabajo de servicio. Más tarde en sus escritos, este mismo evangelista describirá en los Hechos cómo en las primeras comunidades se designó a personas cuyo ministerio era servir las mesas. Como persona plenamente humana, Jesús sabía que había necesidades humanas que atender. No lo niega, ni regaña a Marta por su trabajo de servir. La corrige por estar inquieta y preocupada. ¿Cómo puede Marta, o cualquiera de nosotros, estar inquietos o preocupados sobre el servicio que se necesita hacer cuando lo hacemos dentro del contexto de la voluntad y sabiduría del Señor? La Iglesia ha hecho más que cualquier otra institución llevando la pesada carga de servir a los enfermos, a los que necesitan educación, a los que sufren; ha sido “Marta” para incontables pequeñitos que Cristo dijo son su misma presencia. Sin embargo, la Iglesia ha llevado la carga del servicio desde la postura de María: a los pies del Señor, escuchando y siendo guiados por su palabra. © Copyright, J. S. Paluch Co.

DON’T BE ANXIOUS One can wonder how Luke’s Gospel passage today might have been different if Mary, not Martha, had been the one to complain to Jesus, if Mary had said “Lord, look at her! Here you are sharing your wisdom and all she can think about is supper.” Jesus may have noted, as Luke does, that Martha was burdened with much serving. Later in his writings, this same evangelist will describe in Acts how the early community set aside people whose ministry it is to see to the serving at table. As a fully human person, Jesus knew the human needs that had to be tended. He doesn’t deny this, nor does he chastise Martha for her working in service. He chides her for being anxious and worried. How can Martha—or any of us—be anxious or worried about the serving that needs to be done when we do it in the context of the Lord’s will and wisdom? The Church has done more than any other institution to bear the heavy burdens of serving the ill, the uneducated, the suffering; has been “Martha” to countless of the little ones whom Christ told us were his very presence. But the Church has borne the burdens of service from the position of Mary: at the feet of the Lord, listening to and being guided by his word. © Copyright, J. S. Paluch Co.

Let us Pray for Peace in the World With so many terrible events happening in our world, we need to pray asking the

Lord to enlighten the minds and hearts of so many who believe that violence is the way. Violence has never brought peace to our world. Respect for one another will

bring unity and peace.

Con todo lo que estamos viendo suceder en nuestro mundo, debemos ora para que el Señor ilumine los corazones y la forma de pensar de muchos que creen que la violencia es la única manera de obtener lo que necesitan. La violencia nunca ha

traído la paz al mundo. El respeto mutuo brinde la paz y la unidad.
